New Member ... Jojo

Hi all,

New member happy to join. I just received insurance approval today. I'm so nervous. What is going to happen now? I have been thinking about it nonstop since the call... Omg. Am I ready to be a different person physically. It's odd. I spent 36 years hiding behind this extra weight. Now it's like everyone's going to see me. I know I'm ranting... Is it odd that the first thing to pop into my head after the call was "hey I finally got some big girl thigh high boots, what am I going to do with them?"

I guess I should be asking real questions. How long from approval to surgery?

Thanks for letting me rant.

Jojo

The coordinator said the dr requires 200 hours before scheduling. My question is y not schedule it a month out like they were going to and have me do the hours between now and the surgery date.

That's such a bummer to think you have done everything you need to do and they keep making you do more :(

Omg. They said they are calling me back with an appt

Make sure you wear the cpap very night. It's weird at first but you get yes to it. Glad to have found someone else using Marymore I was beginning to get worried! Insurance said I should know by Friday!
